Google Technical Lead & Architect David Wang Explains http://dougcoleman.posterous.com/why-wave-federation-google-technical-lead-and http://dougcoleman.posterous.com/why-wave-federation-google-technical-lead-and

Google Technical Lead and Architect David Wang speaks at eComm 2009 about building an open network around wave technology. 

Google Wave is a product and wave is a technology, much like Gmail is a product and email is a technology.  It was built using an open federation protocol to promote the use of waves and to ensure that users have a choice of wave providers.  

Anyone can run their own wave server; the idea is to encourage organizations to build wave-like systems that will interoperate and discourage those that don't.

Wang describes what a wave is, gives a theoretical description of sharing waves and details of the Draft Federation Protocol Specification, which simply shows how to operate a wave server.  It's just like running your own SMTP server and in this audio lecture, Wang demonstrates how.

This is pretty cool. If it works, this will be the very first blog post I have ever written while riding on a bus. To add to this remarkable feat of science and technology, I'm using my BlackBerry to write and post this. Historic. Epic. Mind blowing, really. Ok I'm getting a little carried away with all that, but it is pretty cool. I do, however, have my stinky busface on as this rolling metal tube reeks of BO and piss.
